Is it worth mentioning that the Valravn trademark does not appear to be trademarked anymore?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's still listed here as "NEW APPLICATION FILED", implying to me that the trademark office simply hasn't taken action on it yet. It was only filed three months ago, so it's moving at the speed of government.

I see I see...

Looks pretty cool to me [emoji12]

Looks excellent, but I still have my fingers crossed for a flyer. 

Is that real? And no matter how hard Cedar Point tries, they will never dethrone Raptor as the park's best B&M.

No, it's not real.

 

WindingSon, clarifying. Not clariflying.

^^ Tell that to Gatekeeper.  

I forget, where is Cedar Point's Camera 1 located? It's currently experiencing an outage.

Unless they've moved it, which I doubt, both cams 1 & 3 (formerly 1 & 2) are mounted atop the truss of Power Tower's tower.

 

Cam 2 is located on the roof of a food stand along the Main Midway, Corral I believe.

Oh Cedar Point, did you just leak your new roller coaster again on accident? It could be Gatekeeper all over again.

 

If that is the real deal, it looks like one heck of a dive machine.

I think its fake.  There's no room for a train shed in that design.  

 

Just sayin'.  

I think they could squeeze one in there somewhere...

It appears as though we're RougaReady......

Note that it says first floorless coaster in the park which adds more evidence to the dive coaster theory

It's not even the first in Ohio.

Which is terribly unfortunate, yet was say predictable... I still miss that park

They're selling tickets for $29.99 today only! Good July 28-August 16 IIRC. We got ours this morning and I could NOT be happier!!!

Shouldn't that go in a 2015 thread?  

 

Also, since you already mentioned it...  Those tickets can be purchased online here.

I have enjoyed the signs they have been putting up as a teaser. 

I have a 2015 question.   Does Soak City have early admission for Platinum pass holders?   

Nope, 11 am like everyone else.

Pumpkin Patch family coaster dark ride ?

Camera One on the live webcams is back up and running. Go take a look where it's pointing.

 

I had a feeling the outage was not a coincidence. I bet there will be an announcement VERY soon!!  Any day now!

That camera is a PTZ unit, short for pan, tilt, and zoom.  They can move pretty far around the park from its position on Power Tower.

 

It's indeed possible that they positioned it there for internal monitoring and intentionally left it off of the site.  They could've just put up another camera to play with internally, but alas.  We're not entitled to live webcams.  

Oh boy now I'm excited! I love this part of the year. Despite school starting soon and what not, the new roller coaster rumors really gets me excited. C'mon CP, blow me away! 

 

(and KI, hopefully you've got a least something up your sleeve...)

And the trucks are loading

**edit adding what I saw

I found 7 lift hill sections, and using my distance app and comparing the piece next to the flat bed. They are about 45-50ft section and there are 7 of them.

7x45=315'

7x50=350'

This coaster is a GIGA!!!!

**edit again

Sorry but this is a picture of my display on my Nikon. I will upload a better quality image later. This is from one of the blue supports.

Not necessarily. The lift will likely be at an angle and not vertical. For instance if the length was 350' but at a 45 degree angle then the height would only be about 247'. Even if it was a 60 degree angle it would need to be the higher end to come to being a giga. the 315 range at a 60 degree lift would result in only a height of 281'. So pretty well guaranteed to be at elast a hyper, but unless it has a very steep lift it is probably not a giga.

It was all a red herring. The track is headed to Kings Island for their giga.

Gotta compete with Mr. Hart.

That is, if you listen to CoasterRadio.

The lift is very steep. I will have more pictures soon
